Abstract
This paper presents results of experimental investigations of friction coefficient of cereals grain (barley, wheat, oat, rye) against galvanized steel, stainless steel and concrete B 30. Test were performed in the Jenike shear cell in a range of normal stress 20–60 kPa according to procedure recommended by the Eurocode 1 and in the tilting table apparatus in a range of normal stress 0,5–2,5 kPa at five levels of moisture content of grain. It was stated, how friction coefficient depends on wall material, surface properties of grain, level of moisture content and normal stress.
